Yeah, yeah, yeah (rolls eyes). :rolleyes: I know; I've read how it happened to so many others on this site and I must confess, this past Friday it...
Well, birthday was a couple days ago. Some birthdays are hit or miss with coin gifts. This year was a definate hit. I got the 2009 mint set from...
Well, got some new Franklins. I didn't want to post in the "Post a Frankie" thread for fear I may have already posted too much in there already. I...
Background: So, a while back I was admiring my collection when it hit me...I was driving myself nuts with the lack of conformity to my collection....
Well guys, I'm going to celebrate me making it through my second year of graduate school with a contest. That, and I figured it's a nice way to...
Feels awkward posting in the paper money section. Regardless, I feel I must share. I will admit first hand that I know virtually nothing about...

Sorry guys for a somewhat irrelevant post, but I must brag at the shock and utter surprise last night when ordering pizza. Ordered a large...
Birthday came and went. The relatives primarily gave me shopping money. Being a grad student I don't have much money for simply shopping, so I was...
US coins have featured the beloved national symbol on many coins. So, which one is the best? Worst? I personally (preparing for a flogging) enjoy...
I've noticed many posts about mintage numbers, so here's probably a basic question: What is considered as "low mintage?" I'm sure it has to do...
So, I decided to branch out a bit and start a Franklin collection. I'm not sure if I'm doing this correctly, but here is my methodology. I first...
